Yelp Yells "FIRE" in a crowded marketplace

I get google alerts every day for “credit union.” That’s how I get MY news. Because if it’s on the web, it’s truly newsworthy, blogworthy, or in this case “yelp-worthy.” It’s not all press releases from vendors announcing another credit union contract (okay, there’s some of that – but I never open it).

I’ve been on Yelp for over a year. Yes, you should be paying attention to what we’re saying.

I have converted more than a few Yelpers from banks to credit unions in the talk threads, but always in a friendly, educational sort of way. Now, if anyone in the Seattle Yelp community has a financial question, I usually get called out, or someone will send me a personal message saying, “you need to jump in this conversation”.

Hi Denise,Great post and heads-up. I’ve sent it on to Passport Unlimited actually so they could use it in their next conversation about member benefits…. This is awesome. I used Yelp for some stuff a while back, but will revisit in greater depth now.Enjoy your state of confusion visit… :-0
